  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

Delicious crepes filled with a savory spinach and cheese mixture, perfect for brunch or a light dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated mozzarella cheese (for topping)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together flour, eggs, milk, and salt until smooth. Stir in melted butter and set aside.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with olive oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom evenly.
  3. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook for another minute. Remove from skillet and repeat with remaining batter.
  4. In a separate pan, sauté chopped spinach over medium heat until wilted. Remove from heat and mix in ricotta, Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Place a spoonful of the spinach mixture onto each crepe and roll them up. Place in a greased baking dish.
  6. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes until heated through and cheese is bubbly.

Notes

  • You can add herbs like basil or parsley to the filling for extra flavor.
  • These crepes can be made ahead and frozen. Just reheat in the oven when ready to serve.
